Irmin Schmidt, Michael Karoli, Holger Czukay and Jaki Liebezeit shortly before they formed Can. Originally recorded in 1968. Stylistically, this is to Can what Amon Düül was to Amon Düül II: less structured, more improvised, somewhat whimsical/silly at times. Y'know, psychedelic rock/krautrock. The last track is a jam.

Great live album from the four synth masters, recorded in 2009, released on Protracted View. Wonderful droning/prog electronic soundscapes from OPN, KFW and PB, although it is Carlos Giffoni (aka No Fun Acid) who steals the show with his acid techno/house set. Get to it!

Polymer Slug is the project of Adam Tramposh. He creates psychedelic electronic soundscapes using his Casiotone MT-65. The first two tracks are pure ambient, the remaining five tracks are warm synth noodlings ornamented with simple beats. You can buy the cassette on Overland Shark label website or listen to the entire album on the label's Soundcloud page.

So, the other day I got an email entitled simply "U might dig this". Apart from that, the email contained only a link to Owl Pillage session on Nitetrotter. "This better not be some chillwave bullshit", I thought. And man, I fell in love immediately. Distorted, superreverbed (is that even a word) psych noise rock. Damn guys, I'm digging the fuck outta these. Recommended, especially if you're a fan of Heavy Winged, Rahdunes or Burnt Hills.
